we used all fake flowers and my matron of honor (who is really artistic and good at bouquets) put the bouquets together and also made the guy’s little flowers to pin on their tux, as well as the corsages for the mothers. they all looked beautiful (it was a fall wedding…flowers were sunflowers, cat’s tails, gerbera daisies and wild flowers in orange, red, and yellow). i think i spent maybe $60 total for all the flowers and supplies :)

Thanks for sharing your stories, everyone! It doesn’t have to cost a fortune–as long as you have some skilled florist friends :)

Wedding Flowers are ridiculously over-priced! I wanted daisies and was quoted a price of over $700. So – I made my own daisy and sunflower bouquet. All the bridesmaids had very simple daisy bouquets as well. I just bought all the flowers at a nice grocery store the day before the wedding. It was a little stressful to do right before the big day, but they were very cute.

I used faux flowers too… :) I would’ve even been happy with green leaves but everyone thought I ought to go more traditional *rolleyes* so Mother-in-Law brought me a faux flower bouquet.

For anyone who is brave enough to make her own floral things, try Sam’s Club. I got all my wedding flowers there for a great price. They sell two dozen roses for $16. That’s less than a dollar a stem! I never would have been brave enough to make my own bouquets and arrangements, but some of my friends had experimented with floral arranging for a few weddings, and I trusted their judgment explicitly. And they were happy to help :-).
